Polar STEAM Team

What happens when a research vessel gets stuck in sea ice on an Antarctic voyage? This is exactly the situation that artist Kyra Sims found herself in during her time on the R/V Sikuliaq!

Read about how the team adapted and overcame this challenge and about Kyra's experiences on the ship in Kyra's new blog post "Night Ramblings: a Musician in the Antarctic". Link in bio!

The oceanography community is a small world - collaboration, guidance, brainstorming, and troubleshooting, are key to the connections they have built that allow them to advance the scientific mission on the ship while also supporting each others science.

Educator Andi Twiss joined Researcher Deborah Steinberg and team on the R/V Roger Revelle and was honored to be a part of this joy filled community. Learn more about her experience by reading her blog post "Collaboration and Cooperation in Competitive Spaces: Joy, Resilience, and Effort". Link in bio.
